Well, cultural change is not bad in itself, but when the outcome looks like a suffocating cultural monopoly, you don’t need to be a reactionary curmudgeon to be troubled by it.

Why did it take you this long to invoke them? I replied to you because you - needlessly, I think - defended the fandom. How have you replied since?

Notice that you had to invoke articles other than this one?

If you’re not tying it to that, what are you tying it to exactly? What wholesale dismissals of the MCU fandom as a whole prompted your defense?

This?

Good point. What are we doing here? Well, I know what you’re doing here, cause stuff like this is hardly beneath you, but what the hell am I doing here? Sayonara, sourpuss.

6 Underground, in other words.

Don’t sweat it, buttercup.

No, it’s been done many times before. Not saying this duo will pull it off, certainly not if they intend to “contemporize” it, but if you want examples, say in advance what number would be sufficient and you’ll get them.

Lithuanian, not Polish.

Ernst, surely.

Honestly, I found the original title worse than the updated one. Neither explicitly calls him out, but the former explicitly equivocates on whether or not he’s in the wrong.

Nothing in the article you responded to warranted any such defense of Marvel fans. It was a non-issue. And then, when I pointed out something that’s been creeping me the fuck out in the comments of all these articles, you flat-out denied having said anything about Marvel fans, as if I couldn’t check. That bothers me.…

Futility? I must be intruding on your territory. Remind me, noodlenose, just what you were trying to accomplish here and how good of a job you’ve done of it.

I’ve already moved on to picking at the scab of your insecurity.

Good thing you dispelled the non-existent threat that you would be perceived as thick by introducing the near-certainty that you will be perceived as insecure about your intelligence. Without a doubt, that’s the best direction in which you could’ve taken our brief exchange.

I see. So do the DA vampire and the DA ghost inhabit the same fictional universe? Is it that DArk Universe that never got off the ground?

And why exactly are you so set on defending reasonable Marvel fans when they’re not under attack? What exactly called for the #NotAllFans?

There was the potential for a bat-time/bat-channel joke there and you missed it.

A vampire who’s also a DA? Does he work the night court?
